PREFACE
TO THE INSTRUCTOR
This Instructor’s Manual is intended to accompany the fifth edition of Electric Machinery Fundamentals. To
make this manual easier to use, it has been made self-contained. Both the original problem statement and the
problem solution are given for each problem in the book. This structure should make it easier to copy pages from
the manual for posting after problems have been assigned.
Many of the problems in Chapters 2, 4, 5, and 8 require that a student read one or more values from a
magnetization curve. The required curves are given within the textbook, but they are shown with relatively few
vertical and horizontal lines so that they will not appear too cluttered. Electronic copies of the corresponding
open-circuit characteristics, short-circuit characteristics, and magnetization curves as also supplied with the book.
They are supplied in as ASCII text files. Students can use these files for electronic solutions to homework
problems. The ASCII files can be read into MATLAB and used to interpolate points along the curve.
Each curve is given in ASCII format with comments at the beginning. For example, the magnetization curve in
Figure P8-1 is contained in file p81_mag.dat. Its contents are shown below:
% This is the magnetization curve shown in Figure
% P8-1. The first column is the field current in
% amps, and the second column is the internal
% generated voltage in volts at a speed of 1200 r/min.
% To use this file in MATLAB, type "load p81_mag.dat".
% The data will be loaded into an N x 2 array named
% "p81_mag", with the first column containing If and
% the second column containing the open-circuit voltage.
% MATLAB function "interp1" can be used to recover
% a value from this curve.

To use this curve in a MATLAB program, the user would include the following statements in the program:
% Get the magnetization curve. Note that this curve is
% defined for a speed of 1200 r/min.
load p81_mag.dat
if_values = p81_mag(:,1);
ea_values = p81_mag(:,2);
n_0 = 1200;

A ferromagnetic core is shown in Figure P1-2. The depth of the core is 5 cm. The other dimensions of
the core are as shown in the figure. Find the value of the current that will produce a flux of 0.005 Wb.
With this current, what is the flux density at the top of the core? What is the flux density at the right side
of the core? Assume that the relative permeability of the core is 800.
SOLUTION There are three regions in this core. The top and bottom form one region, the left side forms a
second region, and the right side forms a third region. If we assume that the mean path length of the flux
is in the center of each leg of the core, and if we ignore spreading at the corners of the core, then the path
lengths are
= 2(27.5 cm) = 55 cm,
= 30 cm, and
= 30 cm. The reluctances of these regions are:

A ferromagnetic core with a relative permeability of 1500 is shown in Figure P1-3. The dimensions are
as shown in the diagram, and the depth of the core is 5 cm. The air gaps on the left and right sides of the
core are 0.050 and 0.070 cm, respectively. Because of fringing effects, the effective area of the air gaps is
5 percent larger than their physical size. If there are 300 turns in the coil wrapped around the center leg of
the core and if the current in the coil is 1.0 A, what is the flux in each of the left, center, and right legs of
the core? What is the flux density in each air gap?
SOLUTION This core can be divided up into five regions. Let
be the reluctance of the left-hand portion
of the core,
be the reluctance of the left-hand air gap, R be the reluctance of the right-hand portion
of the core,
be the reluctance of the right-hand air gap, and
be the reluctance of the center leg of
the core. Then the total reluctance of the core is

A two-legged core is shown in Figure P1-4. The winding on the left leg of the core (N1) has 600 turns,
and the winding on the right (N2) has 200 turns. The coils are wound in the directions shown in the

1.0 A? Assume

A core with three legs is shown in Figure P1-5. Its depth is 5 cm, and there are 100 turns on the leftmost
leg. The relative permeability of the core can be assumed to be 2000 and constant. What flux exists in
each of the three legs of the core? What is the flux density in each of the legs? Assume a 5% increase in
the effective area of the air gap due to fringing effects.

be the reluctance of the left-hand
portion of the core,
be the reluctance of the center leg of the core,
be the reluctance of the center
air gap, and
be the reluctance of the right-hand portion of the core. Then the total reluctance of the
core is the reluctance of the left-hand leg plot the parallel combination of the reluctances of the right-hand

for these conditions? Is it a good assumption in general?

A two-legged magnetic core with an air gap is shown in Figure P1-11. The depth of the core is 5 cm, the
length of the air gap in the core is 0.05 cm, and the number of turns on the coil is 1000. The
magnetization curve of the core material is shown in Figure P1-9. Assume a 5 percent increase in
effective air-gap area to account for fringing. How much current is required to produce an air-gap flux
density of 0.5 T? What are the flux densities of the four sides of the core at that current? What is the total
flux present in the air gap?

The core shown in Figure P1-2 has the flux shown in Figure P1-12. Sketch the voltage present at the
terminals of the coil.
15
SOLUTION By Lenz’ Law, an increasing flux in the direction shown on the core will produce a voltage that
tends to oppose the increase. This voltage will be the same polarity as the direction shown on the core, so
it will be positive. The induced voltage in the core is given by the equation

Figure P1-13 shows the core of a simple dc motor. The magnetization curve for the metal in this core is
given by Figure 1-10c and d. Assume that the cross-sectional area of each air gap is 18 cm2 and that the
width of each air gap is 0.05 cm. The effective diameter of the rotor core is 5 cm.
(a)
We wish to build a machine with as great a flux density as possible while avoiding excessive
saturation in the core. What would be a reasonable maximum flux density for this core?
(b)
What would be the total flux in the core at the flux density of part (a)?
(c)
The maximum possible field current for this machine is 1 A. Select a reasonable number of turns of
wire to provide the desired flux density while not exceeding the maximum available current.
17
SOLUTION The magnetization curve for this core is shown below:
The relative permeability of this core is shown below:
Note: This is a design problem, and the answer presented here is not unique. Other
values could be selected for the flux density in part (a), and other numbers of turns
could be selected in part (c). These other answers are also correct if the proper steps
were followed, and if the choices were reasonable.
(a)
From Figure 1-10c, a reasonable maximum flux density would be about 1.2 T. Notice that the
saturation effects become significant for higher flux densities.
(b)
At a flux density of 1.2 T, the total flux in the core would be

Since

As expected, the real and reactive power supplied by the source are equal to the sum of the
real and reactive powers consumed by the loads.
(e)
The current flowing decreased when the switch closed, because most of the reactive power being
consumed by Loads 1 and 2 is being supplied by Load 3. Since less reactive power has to be supplied by
the source, the total current flow decreases.
